A brain aneurysm is caused when a artery wall becomes weakened and expands with the potential to burst causing long term effects to motor skills and neuro functions and possible death. The bleeding within the brain causes pressure on the components of the brain. The treatment for aneurysm includes clips that go ove the artery whichs stops the bleeding. In the picture to the left you will notice the aneurysm in the circle of willis.
